Guess who won $2700 yesterday?
Hint=not you.
UPDATE: The deets are, I was dragged to the casino last night. My luck is notoriously and epically bad, so I may as well set my money on fire rather than gamble with it. But I gave in.
I hit $420 on the first machine, then made a little more. I put the $400 plus my original starting cash away, and figured I'd goof off with the rest. I was down to $4 on a machine that allows you to play 25¢, 50¢, or $1 (x2), and on a lark, I switched off quarters to dollars to blow my dollars on two plays. I hit an $1800 jackpot on that. Had to give up my tax info and everything.
Then I made my way around a few more machines, making at least $150 on each. The only machine that didn't give it up was a penny machine. All the dollar machines were my bitch.
So after taxes and everything were taken out of my $1800 win, I walked out of the casino with $2700 more than I went in with.
I fully expected to die in a fiery car crash or something on the way home, just so my luck would return to its natural equilibrium.
